World's most liveable cities [Corrected]
-
According to the Economist, the world's top 5 6 most liveable cities are:
- Melbourne, Australia
- Vienna, Austria
- Vancouver, Canada
- Toronto, Canada
- Adelaide, Australia
- Calgary, Canada
I'm surprised Sydney, Australia didn't make it to the top 6. Also, it's clear the Economist hasn't driven on the same roads that I drive on. :) Clickety[^] /ravi

I always find these top-ten lists (most liveable cities, best beaches, happiest inhabitants, best food) amusing and essentially worthless (at best). On the other hand, I'd not mind being paid to make up a list of top something.

:thumbsup: One personal thing about these lists is that I always seem to miss being associated with any entry in any list, whatsoever.

I take it they got to 'C' in the list of countries in the world and got bored. Also, I'd expect the Economist to be able to see that there's 6 in their top 5?

Looks like a good list, though Calgary can't be liveable in the winter. Lows go down to -30°C (-22°F).

Too many old building around. Need to be replaced with modern structures.

The top 10 goes to S(witzerland)[^] and the bottom 10 extends to the U's. A graphic there shows all of the cities in the list along with thier scores/ranking. It also links to the full report which is behind a registration wall; which does give some insight into their logic.
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging all things in the balance of reason? Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful? --Zachris Topelius Training a telescope on one’s own belly button will only reveal lint. You like that? You go right on staring at it. I prefer looking at galaxies. -- Sarah Hoyt
